Every time I tell someone I work as a Virtual Assistant, they’re always interested in how they can become one too. But there’s also that next line that comes out like clockwork… “Ay Lis, di man nako kaya na. Dili ko techy like you.” And every time I hear that, my soul whispers… “Here we go again.” People have this idea that working online means you have to be some kind of Silicon Valley prodigy who eats coding for breakfast and hacks into mainframes before lunch. Like you nee

You know that sinking feeling when you scroll through your feed and see people getting promoted, launching side hustles, posting on facebook about their wins… while you’re sitting there thinking, “Juskolord. I should’ve started years ago. Uwahi na jud ko!” Yeah. I’ve been there. More times than I care to admit. But here’s a little truthbomb: Being “behind” is just an illusion. Time doesn’t actually leave you. You just haven’t taken the step yet. So if you’ve been stuck in tha

Want to play a little game of imagination? Humor me… Say you’re 80 years old. Wrinkles on your face tell stories of all the people you loved and all the times you laughed too hard.

And if you play it right, it can change your life. But if you let your excuses win... you’ll lose clients faster than your favorite show loads on Netflix. Here are 6

That old idea of having just one job  for the rest of your life isn’t the only option anymore. It used to be the only path our parents saw. Graduate. Get hired. Climb the corporate ladder. Retire. But today... people are building real, stable income outside  the 9 to 5. Virtual assistants do it every single day. Some start as side hustlers. Some go full-time. All of them prove the same thing... your paycheck doesn’t have to come from a cubicle. Here are 5 reasons  why the 9 t

How many opportunities have you lost because you were stuck inside your own head? Be honest. Congratulations. You just spent 3 hours convincing yourself why you can’t  do something… meanwhile, someone else already got hired. Painful? Yeah. But true. Overthinking is like standing at the door of your dream job while holding the key… and never turning it. It makes you believe the problem is “not being ready” when in fact the real issue is you not even showing up. Soooo, to hopef
